What's your favorite Web 1.0 memory?
What's your favorite Web 1.0 memory?
Prior to the internet condensing into just 5 or so websites, what do you remember fondling about being online?
I remember winning a raffle contest on the old Terraria forums and getting to pick my own title (instead of just New Member, Member, Well-Known Member). Of course, since I was like 13, I picked a random collection of letters that only I knew was an acronym of my signature on said forums.
Fondest memories are of using mIRC late in the night while listening to WinAmp.
1I'm pretty sure that's technically still Web2 you're talking about, but I remember back in the day I would sometimes go to cracked flash game sites to play flash games with cheats (I was like 8)
The police still haven't caught me
0My memory probably is more of early Web 2; I was born in the late 90s, so I suppose I missed the really wild west days.
Flash games were great though; it seemed like every company that even slightly catered to people under 30 had a website with some game on it.
0Yeah, some of them were baller and now lost to time. Like Nickelodeon had an Avatar: The Last Airbender 3D penguin sledding game, man I would love to be able to play that again
